The Seattle Seahawks will visit the Tennessee Titans in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE AJ Barner.
Is AJ Barner Playing in Week 12?
Barner is not on the injury report, and barring a surprise, he is expected to play.
We’ll continue to monitor the Seahawks’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Barner in Week 12?
Week 11 was great if you landed on AJ Barner out of some misfortune (10 catches for 70 yards against the Rams), but this is lining up very much to be a “don’t make one mistake two” situation.
You (likely) missed the big week. That’s in the past now. His target share before the high-volume effort was 11.9%, a rate that is obviously not enough to get the job done, and with three receivers running over 30 routes last week, this profile is thin at best.
Barner has posted a sub-five-yard aDOT in four straight, making him, at best, a decent floor play over someone that hits 17 PPR points again. He’s sitting outside of my top 15 at the position this week, and I feel good about it.
